What Is Shoelace Tipping Film?

Shoelace tipping film is a thin tape applied to the ends of shoelaces or cords to form a durable aglet (shoelace tip).

It helps prevent fraying, keeps the tip shape stable, and gives the product a cleaner, more professional finish—whether you’re producing basic laces or branded cords.

Why Manufacturers Choose Credit Ocean Tipping Film

Credit Ocean supports both tipping film supply and shoelace tipping equipment, so we focus on what actually improves your line performance—feeding stability, bonding consistency, and fewer production interruptions.

Smooth Feeding on Production Lines

Precision slitting helps reduce tape wandering and improves feeding stability, especially on faster setups.

Clean Bonding, Better Tip Quality

The film is commonly used with solvent bonding (often acetone) to achieve a neat, secure aglet with consistent shape.

Flexible Options for Different Products

Clear, black, colored, and optional printed styles are available, so you can match lace styles across footwear, garments, or packaging cords.

Compliance-Friendly Screening

Tested to confirm phthalates, lead (Pb), and cadmium (Cd) are not detected—helpful for compliance-focused sourcing and export markets.

Applications & Machine Matching

Different laces and cords need different tip rigidity and wrapping feel, so the best result comes from choosing the right film width and thickness for your actual product.

Custom width, thickness, and color options are available. If you share your lace diameter (or a sample) and target aglet length, we’ll recommend a spec that runs smoothly and bonds consistently on your line.

If you’re also planning equipment or upgrading output, you can check our shoelace tipping machine.
